Zusammenfassung
The short film "No Polo Widow" was released in 2008 and marks a unique creative venture for Blake Mycoskie, the entrepreneur best known as the founder of TOMS Shoes. Mycoskie served as the film's director and co-wrote the screenplay alongside Chris Merrill. The production is a Spanish-language drama with a runtime of approximately 11 minutes, showcasing Mycoskie's interest in storytelling and South American culture during the period he was establishing his global footwear brand.
The cast features several notable actors, including Luz Cipriota, Irene Almus, Juan Durañona y Vedia, and Flavia Masetto. Set against the backdrop of the polo world, the narrative explores themes of loss and lifestyle within that specific sporting subculture. While Mycoskie is primarily recognized for his "One for One" business model, this film is part of a small portfolio of cinematic projects he engaged in during the late 2000s, which also includes titles like Finding Walter and Body Shop.
